Sanity check: Specialized vs Amflow

I had pre-ordered the PR Carbon earlier this year and I called the LBS today to see if there where any updates on delivery dates since I've started to see some posts of Amflows arriving in September. He told me they're starting to get some PX's but the PR's won't be here until early next year, but he has a Turbo Levo 4 alloy in stock today if I wanted to switch. He then proceeded to shit on the Amflows and tell me the Turbo Levo is a much better bike..."bike of the year." To paraphrase him, the components on the base PR are trash and the base Turbo Levo is more comparable to the PR Pro but for way less money. I got on the computer and pulled up the spec sheet for both and I'm just not seeing it.

When I was doing my research earlier in the year I remember coming across quite a few posts of people that had owned both a previous gen Levo and the PL carbon, and pretty much unanimously everyone was saying the Amflow was a much better bike--way more fun to ride.

From a spec standpoint, do you guys agree with what the dude at the LBS was telling me? For anyone that has actually ridden and/or owned both, what are your thoughts on build and ride quality between the 2 brands?

FWIW, i'm in the mountains of CO so realistically I have maybe another 4-6 weeks of mountain bike season before the snowboards come out. With that said, since I've waiting this long I'm not too concerned about waiting until next year for the Amflow if it's indeed the better bike.
